Smart Machines to Boost Emotional Intelligence

Intriguing premise.  As an engineer I don't think I fully understand it.  Link to podcast.

Author Edward Hess discusses his new book, Humility is the New Smart: Rethinking Human Excellence in the Smart Machine Age ....   In Knowledge@Wharton:

"... Technology in the so-called Smart Machine Age, which includes AI, virtual reality and robotics, will bring huge changes not just in headcount, but also in how people innovate and collaborate. That will require new approaches to how people think, listen and relate, says Edward D. Hess, a professor of business administration at the University of Virginia. In the “Smart Age” now evolving, ego has no place. Instead, the focus will need to be on the quality of ideas, accuracy, emotional intelligence and mindfulness.

Hess discussed his ideas on the Knowledge@Wharton show on Wharton Business Radio, SiriusXM channel 111. (Listen to the podcast at the top of this page.) .... "
